Gabriele Stock-Schmilinsky was a German painter and art school director.
In the 1930s, Gabriele Stock-Schmilinsky went on study trips to Paris and Italy with her friend Eduard Bargheer. Artistically influenced initially by Expressionism, she became increasingly involved with Cubism and then Tachism from the 1950s onwards.
Gretchen Wohlwill was a painter and member of the Hamburg Secession. She was one of the German students at the Académie Matisse in Paris and developed a painting style influenced by French avant-garde art. In addition to painting, graphics were a focus of her work. Persecuted by the National Socialists because of her Jewish background, she emigrated to Portugal in 1940. After twelve years in exile, she returned to Hamburg in 1952.
